A sub-theme of the 41st European Group for Organizational Studies (EGOS) colloquium in Athens is about Creating Another World: Alternative Organizations as Engines of Social Transformation. Papers are due January 7, 2025, 23:59 CET via the EGOS portal.
Here’s an excerpt of the call for paper:
[O]ur sub-theme aims to explore how alternative organizations may move from experimenting with creative models and practices at a niche level towards diffusing these creative models and practices across society. By doing so, this sub-theme aims to demonstrate that mainstream models, practices, and norms of organizing are not necessary or logically determined. Such deviations challenge established assumptions and open space for creativity in exploring broader possibilities. We particularly invite contributions that engage with alternative organizations as mechanisms of creative social transformation.
